Weird, it starts up quite nice on my Duron 800 but then again I have 1.5G of RAM..but that shouldn't be a big factor. CPU speed and disk IO are the big factors with OO on start up.
As far as fonts. I'm not sure it takes hints from KDE2 as far as AA fonts are concerned. It's toolkit is GTK and I have the Gnome patch for AA fonts so I guess that's why mine look fine. *shrug*
-> ->I never managed to get 641C running properly (always segfaulted within a few ->seconds of startup). With 641D I've already done a whole days work, and apart ->from a couple of small quirks and the font problem found it to be useable.
641c had issues with resolutions on some boxes..it was random and was purely based on the phase of the moon. On my machine if I went above 1280X1024 it would die as soon as I clicked on a popdown menu, but for others it worked fine at 1600x1200. *shrug* Weird stuff.
